MMS #34 | Money oopsies: Learn from our biggest financial faux pas
In this rather lively episode of Money Made Simple, Jennie and Liv dive into our individual financial facepalms! We share the lessons we've learned since our early investing days, the hard way. Grab a cuppa and join us as we laugh (and maybe cry) about our top money blunders. And maybe you'll get the chance to turn our mistakes into your opportunities! This week's episode dives into:
- Liv's (drawn out) attempts to be a finance bro, playing the stockmarket (free guesses into how that went!)
- Jennie's first-hand experience of the dangers of treating loans like free money and the hangover of debt that follows
- The KiwiSaver mishaps that taught them the importance of paying attention to where their money was going (and not trying to game it!)
- Liv's sometimes flawed journey into property investment, hoping for big gains and ending up with big lessons instead
- Jennie's lack of interest in investing, property and all things finance for a wee bit too long - and how that's impacted her wealth
By the end of this episode, you’ll not only get a hearty financial reality check but also feel a bit better knowing that everyone makes mistakes - even (or especially!) those of us who work in finance. So tune in to turn our lessons into stepping stones for your own financial success.
